Peaky Boy makes perfect Cheltenham start

Henderson debutant looks to have bright future.

Peaky Boy made a winning introduction to hurdles with an effortless success at Cheltenham.

The six-year-old was contesting the Favourite From The Sun Now Daily Maiden Hurdle on his first run for Nicky Henderson, his first hurdling start after winning a bumper and a point-to-point previously.

Under James Bowen he was the 13-8 favourite and made an impression with a straightforward five-length victory, earning a 33-1 quote for the Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle back at Prestbury Park in March.
